"Ok this was a tough one to get perfected...
I tried several variations - using Challah instead of Potato bread, and using different wines.

Ultimately, the best version I created kept with the Potato bread, but dispensed with normal wine and used Ruby Port instead. The sweetness of the port complimented well with the strawberries and didn't overpower the flavor. Some of the previous incarnations tasted like nasty (manishevitz-esque) over-oxidized wine-soaked bread. I also let the strawberries macerate in just the sugar and honey overnight and then added the port about an hour or two before I made the actual rounds.
